Hi Sir Fred, if you're going to move the total volume of water 2x in 1 hr, no need na for TPR, it would create naman a mild whirlpool effect inside, especially the pond is not that big, thus reducing head loss.

TPR here is a propulsion type sir Fishman8, water coming from the plant box on top of pond, not from the pump, i will be using 1.5inch pipes, the 3 layer falls that they made, will not run most of the time, runs only when there is an occasion in the place, so instead i will add a small falls on the plant box, actually with kois, water movement is no problem inside the pond at all, kasi bawat galaw nila, daming water movement na yan, and drive some debris to the bottom drain, but with TPRs, more percentage of debris will be directed to the BD.

Pump rate will be 2.5x in 1 hour, roughly on paper...will see during actual testing. Thanks

I think your propulsion type Papa Fred is similar to what I have installed in my main pond. Yes, still it's best to have TPRs, no dead spots, which may become visible or eye sore when more poops are settling at the bottom. TPRs will help lead those unwanted sight go directly to your BDs.

Same propulsion type, but me differecnce in the piping layout, and with the streams of Goto kula like sir Junax and Yours. Yes na tes with the TPRs. Thanks idol!
